tribal skull

I am working on new tattoo patterns as we speak.  I have scanned in a number of them but have yet to post.  Sometimes, I get too caught up in the wrong daily tasks, and my day becomes counter productive.  I have one new post for you today, and I'll try to make at least one post each day, or at the latest hopefully two.  But, like I said, I get caught up in drawing and trying to work mturk so much that I hardly take the time to post. 

well, like I said I was going to have another tattoo pattern for you.  Here it is.

female tat design

This one was inspired by a previous design that I did on a sheet of sketches and flash art.  I took more emphasis on the main tribal design and made it a little more femanine for the ladies to use.

Sorry, it just flowed that way.

eye

This one was simple. I had the eye in place, and the surrounding design had been used so many times by me, that I just felt comfortable with it when it was finished. 
This is a very basic Eye of Ra with an anima inspired flesh job on the pupil.

This might actually be easy to work into something else that you might think about doing in your design.  This tat design is very simple to follow.  You should be able to print it out with no problem and make a stencle out of it.

fiery flower

The only bit of this that was inspired by anything else was the flower.  Once I had that in place it was a pretty good free flow to the finished project.  This had to be the most difficult shading I've done in a while, so many fine details.  It is very crazy knot work in this project all in flames.  There are many things going on in this tat so I will not tell you what you see.

celtic knot work

This was one of those projects that floated by so fast that I wasn't sure what I was drawing until it was finished, even though the center portion of the project was actually taken from a picture in a book I read about Henna alternatives.  I'm still not exactly sure what it is, but I know the knot work was simple.  Shading was a little of a pain for this one, becuase there was no smudging involved in the production.
